ALPA Canada President

Joined August 2011
FYI Anko van der Werff and @SAS, firing elected union leaders for doing their jobs is illegal in Canada but despicable everywhere. @AirCanada @ALPACanada @swedishpilots alpa.org/press-room/2026/10/…

C-39 represents a giant step backwards for Canadians b/c it will work against the cultivation of healthy labour relations. It falsely implies you can truly believe in collective bargaining OR be on Team Canada, but not both. @ALPACanada knows how to get deals for our members.

It was a privilege to be in Gander to witness this speech in person. As I had the opportunity to tell him afterwards, he always meets the moment. Merci Monsieur. 🇨🇦
Former Canada Prime Minister Jean Chrétien: "I have message for American friends...never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness...We bow to no one."

Capt. Nicholas Dobi operated the last flight of his career, departing Milan destined for Newark, but which arrived in Gander, Nfld on 9/11/2001. It was an honour to present him with an @ALPACanada pin and to thank him for his service on behalf of all @AirCanadaPilots

A special moment in Gander, Nfld. ALPA Canada President Capt. Tim Perry had the honour of presenting an ALPA Canada pin to retired ALPA pilot Capt. Nicholas Dobi, who flew Continental Flight 43 from Milan to Newark when it was diverted to Gander on 9/11.

Devastated to have lost two colleagues last night. Deeply grateful for the incredible support from the Canadian aviation and labour community. The fallen will live in our hearts. May they rest in peace.
“Our condolences go out to our fellow aviators, their loved ones, and our colleagues at Jazz Aviation during this heartbreaking time.” – @tim_f_perry

Today my labour sensibility leads me to think of the Persian people. Because their government doesn’t reflect who they truly are, I think of a people whose hospitality knows no bounds, whose culture enriches the world, and who are sadly and consequentially terribly misunderstood.

A little friendly wager between friends! Just like on the map 🍁 will remain on top! @ALPAPilots and @ALPACanada getting in the Olympic spirit! @HockeyCanada #gocanadago
As the Winter Olympics get going, I made a bet on the men’s hockey tournament with @ALPACanada president @tim_f_perry. Whoever’s team does worse has to wear the other country’s ALPA flag tie at our next Executive Board meeting. Let’s go @USAHockey!

Proud to speak in support of @TSCPilotes. The 13.5 thousand @ALPACanada pilots will not stand for @airtransat delays in reaching a fair contract. No more discount labour.
ALPA Canada president @tim_f_Perry delivers remarks during the informational picket for Transat pilots; “I have a message for Transat management: Undervaluing your pilots is bad business…and if you don’t believe me, keep doing what you’re doing.”

Sad to share the news of Marc Garneau, former Minister and first Canadian in space, passing away earlier today. He was a leader, a dedicated safety advocate and profoundly decent man. My thoughts are with his family and everyone whose life he touched. cbc.ca/news/politics/marc-gr…

Trump tariffs, above all, hurt workers. Sadly this is the case on both sides of our boarder, but while this point goes unheeded by the US administration as March 4th comes and goes, for our part we must now embrace each other, as pilots, as workers, as Canadians. Now and forever.
